In my new book, Dreams Without Goals Are Nightmares, I talk about “AHA moments.”

An “AHA moment” is when something you read in my book makes a mental light bulb go off, and suddenly you realize, how simple is that? I can do it too.

In my book, I have a worksheet where you can write down your “AHA moments.”

When you say “aha,” I want you to write it down and know that you can implement it immediately.

This is the way you accomplish your goals.
